Hinckley oak

Quercus hinckleyi

Summary 1

Quercus hinckleyi is a rare species of oak known by the common name Hinckley oak. It is native to Texas in the United States, where it occurs in only two counties. The oak has probably become rare not because of habitat loss, but because today's climate in its native area is too dry. It is federally listed as a threatened species of the United States.
